Open House – Thetford User’s Manual @ Latham Library

Open House - Thetford User's Manual @ Latham Library

What do you know about Thetford? If Thetford had a User’s Manual, what would you want to see included? Maybe you’d be willing to write a section? Creating something like this will take new eyes and local historical knowledge alike. Stop by the Open House to see examples from Bethel and Middlesex and talk with local resident Cynthia Shelton about how something like this might look for Thetford.

Nonfiction Book Discussion @ online via Zoom
**Cancelled due to illness**
The next meeting of Thetford’s informal nonfiction book discussion group will take place at Latham Library on Thetford Hill on Tuesday March 28th at 12 NOON on Zoom.   For the Zoom link, please contact librarian@thetfordlibrary.org
We will continue our discussion of The City in History by Lewis Mumford.
 A definitive classic, Lewis Mumford’s massive historical study brings together a wide array of evidence — from the earliest group habitats to medieval towns to the modern centers of commerce — to show how the urban form has changed throughout human civilization.

Mumford explores the factors that made Greek cities uniques and offers a controversial view of the Roman city concept. He explains how the role of monasticism influenced Christian towns and how mercanitile capitalism shapes the modern city today.

The City in History remains a powerfully influential work, one that has shaped the agendas of urban planners, sociologists, and social critics since its publication in the 1960s.
The book may be obtained from your local library, via interlibrary loan,  possibly as an audio or e-book via ListenUp Vermont or in New Hampshire,  New Hampshire Downloadable Books. Users need only get a barcode number from their local library to use the services.  Or you can obtain the book from your favorite local bookseller, or via www.bookfinder.com, the aggregator site for booksellers both large and small from all over the world, and for books both new and secondhand.

All are welcome and we look forward to seeing you.
